relax 2.1.2 build error on darwin -- October 19, 2012 - 16:00

Edward,
   While trying to update the current fink relax-py packaging to the new 
2.1.2 release.
I ran into a build failure of the form...

/sw/bin/python2.7 /sw/bin/scons
scons: Reading SConscript files ...
AttributeError: 'builtin_function_or_method' object has no attribute 
'dispatch':
  File "/sw/src/fink.build/relax-py27-2.1.2-1/relax-2.1.2/SConstruct", line 
37:
    from scons.distrib import package, gpg_sign

  File "/sw/lib/python2.7/site-packages/numpy/oldnumeric/compat.py", line 110:
    dispatch = copy.copy(pickle.Unpickler.dispatch)

This failure didn't occur with the relax 2.1.0 or 2.1.1 releases. 
Interestingly this
error looks like the one described in the thread...
